-14 - (-12)
A. -26
B. -2
C. 2
D. 26

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the rule for this:

a - (- b) = a + b

Thus, we have:

-14 - (-12) = -14 + 12

Add the number:

Since there are more negative than positive the final solution is negative

Hence, now 14 - 12 = 2

Now bring the negative down:

-2

Therefore, the answer is -2

Kavinsky

Answer 2

When there are two minuses beside each other

⇒ we can equate them as a '+'

   so:

       -14 - (-12) = -14 + 12 = -2 or Choice (B)

Hope that helps!

Answers

Answer:

~9.6 years it will be worth 3.23 mil.    

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem requires use of the growth formula.

PART 1:

X""=(8-5,4+2)=(3,6)Y""=(-6-5,10+2)=(-11,12)Z""=(2-5,-14+2)=(-3,-12)

Answer:

Given points:

X = (2, 4)Y = (5, -3)Z = (-7, 1)

Part (a)

Rotate 90° clockwise (about the origin): (x, y) → (y, -x)

X' = (4, -2)Y' = (-3, -5)Z' = (1, 7)

Part (b)

Dilation by a scale factor → multiply the points by the scale factor

scale factor = 2

X'' = (8, -4)Y'' = (-6, -10)Z'' = (2, 14)

Part (c)

Reflect across the x-axis:  (x, y) → (x, -y)

X''' = (8, 4)Y''' = (-6, 10)Z''' = (2, -14)

Answers

Answer:

x = 5

x = -15

Explanation:

Let the number be "x"

===================

(x + 5)² = 100x + 5 = ±√100x + 5 = ±10x + 5 = 10, x + 5 = -10x = 10 - 5, x = -10 -5x = 5, -15

Answer:

x= 5 or -15

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

(x+5)^2=100

x^2+10x+25=100

x^2+10x-75=9

look for factors of 75 that when you gives you 10 and when you multiply gives you -75

those factors are 15 and -5

replace 10x with 15x and -5x

x^2+15x-5x-75=0

then group them, and factorize

x(x+15)-5(x+15)=0

x-5=0 or x+15=0

x= 5 or x= -15

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-1,3) and is parallel to the line y=2x+2 .

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

REMEMBER:

The new line will be parallel to the line represented by y =2x +2

⇒ The equation y = 2x + 2 is written in slope- intercept form (i.e. y=mx + b) where m represents the slope.  So the slope of this line is 2.   A line parallel to y = 2x + 2 will have the same slope.  This means the slope of the new line will also be 2.  

To determine the equation of the new line, we can use the given point  to find the y intercept of the new line:
⇒ y = 2x + b

Use x = -1 and y =3 to find b (or the y intercept ) of the new line:

⇒ 3 = 2 * (-1) + b

⇒ 3= -2 + b

⇒ b=5

Therefore, the equation of the line passing thru (-1,3) with the same slope as that of y = 2x + 2 will be:

⇒ y = 2x + 5

Answer:

y = 2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line equation 2x - y + 2 = 0

Equation of line parallel to this line will be of form

=> 2x - y + k = 0 ( where 'k' is a constant )

Now this line passes through (-1,3)

=> 2(-1) - (3) + k = 0

=> -2 - 3 + k = 0

=> k - 5 = 0

=> k = 5

Therefore the required line equation is 2x - y + 5 = 0 or y = 2x + 5

Hope you've understood the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the diagonal, you have to use the Pythagorean Theorem, which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

So, a and b both equal 6, square both of those, you got 36 for each.

Now, add them together and youll get 72

The square root of 72 is around 8.48

Answers

Answer: 495

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the foil covers the object and does not fill it, this problem is a matter of surface area rather than volume. Surface area is finding the area of all the faces, and adding them up.

Since we know the two triangular ends are not covered, this actually makes the problem easier.

Going with our definition of surface area above, we do:

(16.5 * 13) + (16.5 * 12) + (16.5 * 5) = 495

Our answer is 495

Answer:

C: 495ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to calculate and add the surface area of the three rectangular faces of this prism. The two triangular ends are not covered in the foil as stated in the question. You find this like any other rectangle by multiplying the length by the width. (a = lw)

Let's start with the bottom rectangle, it has dimensions of 5x 16.5ft

5 * 16.5 = 82.5

Now the rectangle on the right side.

13 * 16.5 = 214.5

Now the left or back side rectangle.

12 * 16.5 = 198

Now add these values together

82.5 + 214.5 + 198 = 495ft²

m = slopeb = y-intercept (when x = 0)

y = −5(x + 6) + 2x <== distribute -5

y = −5(x) + −5(6) + 2x

y = −3x −30

11. A chessboard has diagonals of length
40 cm. What is the length of each side of the
board, to the nearest tenth of a centimetre?
Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

√800 = 28 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Your c value is 40cm beacause c=length of the hypotenuse, or in this case the diagonal of the chess board.

You now have 2a2=402.

Start solving it:

2a2=402

2a2=1600

(2a2)/2=1600/2

a2=800

√(a2)=√800

a=√800 cm

You can plug this back in to check your answer, and also be sure that a=b is true.

a2+b2=c2

(√800)2+(√800)2=c2

800+800=c2

1600=c2

√1600=√c²

40=c
